I think it's a bit pointed when the media start describing things as "Israeli-influenced." For example, the shots to the head were explained as 'taught to the police by Israeli experts' on tonight's ITV.

I've heard several comments about "doing things as the Israelis do." Nowt against the Israelis, but is it wise to keep harping on about Israelis in response to Muslims who are committing terrorist acts??

Yeah, that was a bit of a political faux pas And ITV usually know better than that.......

As far as I know, most of the world's special forces send their instructers to Hereford to learn from the VERY best.

Why would we need to learn from anyone, we have been actively engaged in counter terrorism for 30-40 years with the irish problem.

Whilst I do agree with this, the IRA and AQ type terrorism are quite different beasts.

If I wanted to ask someone about the intricacies of dealing with suicide bus bombers, one of the first places I would knock at would be the Israeli security forces.

Turn the whole kit in and start again you think? You may be right at that.
